How do you handle drain clogs in a condo?
Drain clogs in a condo can be more complicated than in a single-family home because the drain lines are shared vertically with other units. A clog in one unit may actually stem from buildup or blockage in the main stack. We begin by inspecting the affected fixture and using professional snaking or camera equipment to locate the problem. If the clog is localized, such as a blocked P-trap or branch line, we clear it using augers or enzyme treatments. For deeper or recurring clogs, we may need to access common areas or coordinate with building maintenance to inspect and flush the vertical stack. In some cases, hydro jetting may be required to remove grease, scale, or debris buildup. Our team takes all necessary precautions to protect your unit and minimize mess, and we document our findings if required for the property manager or board.
